Since 1927, Carolina Biological Supply Co. has been providing schools and other government entities with school science supplies. This North Carolina-headquartered company began as the vision of a young geology and biology professor at Elon University who wanted to provide educational institutions around the world with science lab equipment. Today, Carolina provides everything needed for science and math education, including living organisms, preserved specimens, anatomical models, laboratory equipment, microscopes, K-8 curriculum programs, teacher resources, books, charts, tissue culture materials and much more. Employees at the company, many of whom are former educators, work following three main principles: innovation, quality and service.
